Learning Objective 7-1. Compute a break-even point using the
contribution-margin approach and the equation approach.
The Break-Even Point
The break-even point is the point in the volume of activity
where the organization’s revenues
and expenses are equal.
7-*
The break-even point is the volume of activity where the
organization’s revenues and expenses are equal.
At this amount of sales, the organization has no profit or loss; it
breaks even.
This chapter will introduce an income statement highlighting
the distinction between variable and fixed expenses. Notice
that this income statement highlights the distinction between
variable and fixed expenses.
The statement also shows the total contribution margin, which
is defined as total sales revenue minus total variable expenses.
Total contribution margin is the amount of revenue that is
available to contribute to covering fixed expenses after all
variable expenses have been covered. (LO 7-1)

The equation approach can be used to find the break-even point.
This approach is based on the profit equation.
Income (or profit) is equal to sales revenue minus expenses.
Expenses can be separated in variable and fixed expenses.
At the break-even point, net income is $0. (LO 7-1)

Learning Objective 7-2. Compute the contribution-margin ratio
and use it to find the break-even point in sales dollars.
Contribution-Margin Approach
For each additional surf board sold, Curl generates $200 in
contribution margin.
Consider the following information developed by the accountant
at Curl, Inc.:
7-*
Helen (H) - Slide 6 NN
First sentence: Changed the learning objective '(LO2)' to read
'(LO 7-2).'
Curl, Inc. manufactures surf boards. Each surf board sells for
$500 and has variable costs of $300. (LO 7-2)
Therefore, the contribution margin per unit is $200. When
enough surf boards are sold so that the total contribution margin
is $80,000, Curl Inc. will break even for the period. (LO 7-2)

To compute the break-even volume of surf boards, divide the
total fixed expenses by the unit contribution margin.
For Curl, Inc., $80,000 is divided by $200, which equates to
400 surf boards. That means that the company must sell 400
surfboards to break-even. (LO 7-2)

Contribution-Margin Approach
Here is the proof!
7-*
400 × $500 = $200,000
400 × $300 = $120,000
The break-even point of 400 units can be proven by first
calculating total sales: multiply $500 x 400 units for $200,000
in total sales.
The variable expenses are $300 per unit x 400 units, which is
$120,000.
Total sales less total variable expenses is total contribution
margin of $80,000.
When fixed expenses of $80,000 are deducted from the total
contribution margin, leaving $0 in net income. (LO 7-2)

Sometimes management prefers that the break-even point be
expressed in sales dollars rather than units.
This can be accomplished by using the contribution margin
ratio.
The formula for the contribution margin ratio is contribution
margin divided by sales.
Then divide fixed expenses by the contribution margin ratio to
determine the total sales dollars at the break-even point. (LO 7-

Learning Objective 7-3. Prepare a cost-volume-profit (CVP)
graph and explain how it is used.
Graphing Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships
Viewing CVP relationships in a graph gives managers a
perspective that can be obtained in no other way.
Consider the following information for Curl, Inc.:
7-*
While the break-even point conveys useful information to
management, it does not show how profit changes as activity
changes.
Managers will often use a cost-volume-profit (CVP) graph to
show the relationship between profit and volume of activity.
Consider Curl, Inc. At sales of 300 unit, Curl Inc. incurs a net
loss of $20,000.
The break-even point occurs at 400 units and a $20,000 profit
occurs when sales are at 500 units. (LO 7-3)

In step 1, the horizontal and vertical axes are drawn. The
vertical axis of the graph is dollars and the horizontal axis is
units of sales.
In step 2, the fixed-expense line is drawn. It is parallel to the
horizontal axis, since fixed expenses do not change with
activity.
In step 3, compute the total expenses at any volume. Plot that
point. For Curl, Inc., look at 400 units. Multiply the unit
variable expenses of $300 per unit times 400 units for total
variable expenses of $120,000. Add the variable expense to the
fixed expenses of $80,000. So at the 400 unit level, total
expenses are $200,000. (LO 7-3)

Yet another approach to graphing cost-volume-profit
relationships is called a profit-volume graph.
It highlights the amount of profit or loss.
The graph intercepts the vertical axis at the amount equal to
fixed expenses at the zero activity level.
The graph crosses the horizontal axis at the break-even point.
The vertical distance between the horizontal axis and the profit
line, at a particular level of sales volume, is the profit or loss at
that volume. (LO 7-3)

Target Net Profit
We can determine the number of surfboards that Curl must sell
to earn a profit of $100,000 using the contribution margin
approach.
7-*
Fixed expenses + Target profit
Unit contribution margin
=
Units sold to earn
the target profit
$80,000 + $100,000
$200
= 900 surf boards
When a company has a net profit they are trying to achieve, or a
target net profit, the contribution margin approach can be used
to determine the number of units that must be sold.
This is very similar to finding the break-even point.
The numerator is fixed expenses plus the target profit. The
denominator is the contribution margin per unit.
The result is the units that need to be sold to earn the targeted
net profit. (LO 7-4)

Last sentence: Added the word 'the' after the word 'becomes.'
The equation approach also can be used to find the units of
sales required to earn a target net profit. Recall that in the
profit equation, profit is equal to revenues minus variable and
fixed expenses. Recall that profit was set to zero to determine
the break-even point. When management has determined a
target net profit greater than zero, that number becomes the
profit variable in the equation. (LO 7-4)

If the additional advertising is effective and sales increases to
540 boards, sales revenue would be $270,000, variable expenses
would be $162,000 and the contribution margin would be
$108,000.
Fixed expenses would now be $90,000 and therefore, net
income would be $18,000.
Net income at the current level is $20,000. (LO 7-4)

Changes in Unit
Contribution Margin
Because of increases in cost of raw materials, Curl’s variable
cost per unit has increased from $300 to $310 per surfboard.
With no change in selling price per unit, what will be the new
break-even point?
X = 422 units (rounded)
7-*
($500 × X)
($310 × X)
–
–
$80,000 = $0
When the variable cost per unit changes, this effects the
contribution margin per unit.
In turn, the break-even point would also be changed.
Look at Curl, Inc.
Suppose the variable cost per unit increases to $310 but there is
no change in selling price.
Using the equation approach, we find that the new break-even
point is 422 units, instead of 400 units. (LO 7-4)
Changes in Unit
Contribution Margin
Suppose Curl, Inc. increases the price of each surfboard to
$550. With no change in variable cost per unit, what will be the
new break-even point?
X = 320 units

Changing the unit sales price will also alter the unit
contribution margin.
Suppose the price is raised from $500 to $550.
This change will raise the unit contribution margin from $200 to
$250.
The new break-even point will be 320 units ($80,000 / $250).
A $50 increase in the sales price will lower the break-even point
from 400 to 320 surf boards.
But is this change desirable?
A lower break-even point may seem like a good thing if sales
are slow.
However, Curl may be more likely to at least break even with a
lower sales price.
Maybe sales volume would drop dramatically if the price is
raised to $550.
Management must try to predict the reaction of the consumers.
CVP analysis provides valuable information, but it is only one
of several elements that influence management’s decisions.

In the coming year, Curl’s owner expects to sell 525 surfboards.
The unit contribution margin is expected to be $190, and fixed
costs are expected to increase to $90,000.

$90,000 = X
For example, Curl expects to sell 525 surfboards in the coming
year.
Variable costs are expected to increase, which would reduce the
unit contribution margin to $190.
Fixed costs are also expected to increase to $90,000.
The expected profit can be determined by first determining the
total contribution.
This is the unit contribution times the number of units sold.
By deducting the fixed costs, we can see that the expected profit
would be $9,750. (LO 7-4)

CVP Analysis with Multiple Products
For a company with more than one product, sales mix is the
relative combination in which a company’s products are sold.
Different products have different selling prices, cost structures,
and contribution margins.
Let’s assume Curl sells surfboards and sailboards and see how
we deal with break-even analysis.

If a company sells more than one product, the relative
combination in which a company’s products are sold is referred
to as the sales mix.
With different selling prices, contribution margins, and fixed
costs, it now becomes more difficult to determine the break-
even point.
Let’s assume that Curl, Inc. also sells sailboards. (LO 7-5)

The sales mix is used to compute a weighted-average unit
contribution margin.
This is the average of all products’ unit contribution margins,
weighted by the relative sales proportion of each product.
For Curl, surfboards have a unit contribution margin of $200,
which is multiplied by the 62.5% sales proportion.
The weighted contribution margin for the surfboards is $125.
The same formula is used to calculate the weighted contribution
margin for sailboards, which is $206.25.
The total weighted average contribution margin for Curl’s
products is $331.25. (LO 7-5)

Helen (H) - Slide 38 NN
Item 2.A. Moved the text that was wrapped to the previous line.
For any cost-volume-profit analysis to be valid, the following
important assumptions must be reasonably satisfied within the
relevant range.
1. The behavior of total revenue is linear (straight-line). This
implies that the price of the product or service will not change
as sales volume varies within the relevant range.
2. The behavior of total expenses is linear (straight-line) over
the relevant range. This implies the following more specific
assumptions.
a. Expenses can be categorized as fixed, variable, or
semivariable. Total fixed expenses remain constant as activity
changes, and the unit variable expense remains unchanged as
activity varies.
b. The efficiency and productivity of the production process and
workers remain constant.
3. In multiproduct organizations, the sales mix remains constant
over the relevant range.
4. In manufacturing firms, the inventory levels at the beginning
and end of the period are the same. This implies that the number
of units produced during the period equals the number of units
sold.

On a traditional income statement, cost of goods sold includes
both variable and fixed manufacturing costs, as measured by the
firm’s product-costing system.
The gross margin is computed by subtracting cost of goods sold
from sales.
Selling and administrative expenses are then subtracted; each
expense includes both variable and fixed costs.
The traditional income statement does not disclose the
breakdown of each expense into its variable and fixed
components. (LO 7-7)

CVP Relationships and the
Income Statement
7-*
Many operating managers find the traditional income-statement
format difficult to use, because it does not separate variable and
fixed expenses.
Instead they prefer the contribution income statement.
The contribution format highlights the distinction between
variable and fixed expenses.
On the contribution income statement, all variable expenses are
subtracted from sales to obtain the contribution margin.
All fixed costs are then subtracted from the contribution margin
to obtain net income.
Operating managers frequently prefer the contribution income
statement, because its separation of fixed and variable expenses
highlights cost-volume-profit relationships.
It is readily apparent from the contribution-format statement
how income will be affected when sales volume changes by a
given percentage. (LO7-7)

Learning Objective 7-8. Explain the role of cost structure and
operating leverage in CVP relationships.
Cost Structure and Operating Leverage
The cost structure of an organization is the relative proportion
of its fixed and variable costs.
Operating leverage is:
the extent to which an organization uses fixed costs in its cost
structure.
greatest in companies that have a high proportion of fixed costs
in relation to variable costs.
7-*
The cost structure of an organization is the relative proportion
of its fixed and variable costs.
Cost structures differ widely among industries and among firms
within an industry.
A company using a computer-integrated manufacturing system
has a large investment in plant and equipment, which results in
a cost structure dominated by fixed costs.
In contrast, a home builder contractor’s cost structure has a
much higher proportion of variable costs.
The highly automated manufacturing firm is capital-intensive,
whereas the home building contractor is labor-intensive.
An organization’s cost structure has a significant effect on the
sensitivity of its profit to changes in volume.
The extent to which an organization uses fixed costs in its cost
structure is called operating leverage.
The operating leverage is greatest in firms with a large
proportion of fixed costs, low proportion of variable costs, and
the resulting high contribution margin ratio. (LO 7-8)

leverage factor.
The formula is contribution margin divided by net income.
At sales of 500 surfboards, Curl’s contribution margin is
$100,000 and net income is $20,000; therefore, its operating
leverage factor is 5. (LO 7-8)

Measuring Operating Leverage
A measure of how a percentage change in sales will affect
profits. If Curl increases its sales by 10%, what will be the
percentage increase in net income?
7-*
The operating leverage factor is a measure, at a particular level
of sales, of the percentage impact on net income of a given
percentage change in sales revenue.
Multiplying the percentage change in sales revenue by the
operating leverage factor yields the percentage change in net
income.
At Curl, Inc., a 10% increase in sales would be multiplied by
the operating leverage of 5.
Therefore, if Curl experiences a 10% increase in sales, it can
expect a 50% increase in net income. (LO 7-8)

Measuring Operating Leverage
A firm with proportionately high fixed costs has relatively high

operating leverage has a relatively high break-even point.
7-*
A firm’s cost structure plays an important role in determining
its cost-volume-profit relationships.
A company with proportionately high fixed cost has relatively
high operating leverage.
The result of high operating leverage is that the firm can
generate a large percentage increase in net income from a
relatively small percentage increase in sales revenue.
On the other hand, a firm with high operating leverage has a
relatively high break-even point.
This entails some risk to the firm. (LO 7-8)

Unit contribution margin
Traditional cost-volume-profit analysis focuses on the number
of units sold as the only cost and revenue driver.
Sales revenue is assumed to be linear in units sold.
Moreover, costs are categorized as fixed or variable, with
respect to the number of units sold, within the relevant range.
This approach is consistent with traditional product-costing
systems, in which cost assignment is based on a single, volume-
related cost driver.
In CVP analysis, as in product costing, the traditional approach
can be misleading or provide less than adequate information for
various management purposes.
An activity based costing system provides a much more

    The Break-Even Point Thebreak-even point is the point in the volume of activity where the organization’s revenues and expenses are equal. 7-* The break-even point is the volume of activity where the organization’s revenues and expenses are equal. At this amount of sales, the organization has no profit or loss; it breaks even. This chapter will introduce an income statement highlighting the distinction between variable and fixed expenses. Notice that this income statement highlights the distinction between variable and fixed expenses. The statement also shows the total contribution margin, which is defined as total sales revenue minus total variable expenses. Total contribution margin is the amount of revenue that is available to contribute to covering fixed expenses after all variable expenses have been covered.

This approach is based on the profit equation. Income (or profit) is equal to sales revenue minus expenses. Expenses can be separated in variable and fixed expenses. At the break-even point, net income is $0. (LO 7-1)

Compute the contribution-margin ratio and use it to find the break-even point in sales dollars. Contribution-Margin Approach For each additional surf board sold, Curl generates $200 in contribution margin. Consider the following information developed by the accountant at Curl, Inc.: 7-* Helen (H) - Slide 6 NN First sentence: Changed the learning objective '(LO2)' to read '(LO 7-2).' Curl, Inc. manufactures surf boards. Each surf board sells for $500 and has variable costs of $300. (LO 7-2) Therefore, the contribution margin per unit is $200. When enough surf boards are sold so that the total contribution margin is $80,000, Curl Inc. will break even for the period. (LO 7-2)

The variable expenses are $300 per unit x 400 units, which is $120,000. Total sales less total variable expenses is total contribution margin of $80,000.

    Sometimes management prefersthat the break-even point be expressed in sales dollars rather than units. This can be accomplished by using the contribution margin ratio. The formula for the contribution margin ratio is contribution margin divided by sales. Then divide fixed expenses by the contribution margin ratio to determine the total sales dollars at the break-even point.

Prepare a cost-volume-profit (CVP) graph and explain how it is used. Graphing Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships Viewing CVP relationships in a graph gives managers a perspective that can be obtained in no other way. Consider the following information for Curl, Inc.: 7-* While the break-even point conveys useful information to management, it does not show how profit changes as activity changes. Managers will often use a cost-volume-profit (CVP) graph to show the relationship between profit and volume of activity. Consider Curl, Inc. At sales of 300 unit, Curl Inc. incurs a net loss of $20,000. The break-even point occurs at 400 units and a $20,000 profit occurs when sales are at 500 units.

Multiply the unit variable expenses of $300 per unit times 400 units for total variable expenses of $120,000. Add the variable expense to the fixed expenses of $80,000. So at the 400 unit level, total expenses are $200,000.

    to determine thenumber of units that must be sold. This is very similar to finding the break-even point. The numerator is fixed expenses plus the target profit. The denominator is the contribution margin per unit. The result is the units that need to be sold to earn the targeted net profit. (LO 7-4) Equation Approach Sales revenue – Variable expenses – Fixed expenses = Profit X = 900 surf boards 7-* ($500 × X) ($300 × X) – – $80,000 = $100,000 ($200X) = $180,000 Helen (H) - Slide 21 NN Last sentence: Added the word 'the' after the word 'becomes.' The equation approach also can be used to find the units of sales required to earn a target net profit. Recall that in the profit equation, profit is equal to revenues minus variable and fixed expenses. Recall that profit was set to zero to determine the break-even point. When management has determined a target net profit greater than zero, that number becomes the profit variable in the equation. (LO 7-4)

    Contribution Margin Suppose Curl,Inc. increases the price of each surfboard to $550. With no change in variable cost per unit, what will be the new break-even point? X = 320 units 7-* ($550 × X) ($300 × X) – – $80,000 = $0 Changing the unit sales price will also alter the unit contribution margin. Suppose the price is raised from $500 to $550. This change will raise the unit contribution margin from $200 to $250. The new break-even point will be 320 units ($80,000 / $250). A $50 increase in the sales price will lower the break-even point from 400 to 320 surf boards. But is this change desirable? A lower break-even point may seem like a good thing if sales are slow. However, Curl may be more likely to at least break even with a lower sales price. Maybe sales volume would drop dramatically if the price is raised to $550. Management must try to predict the reaction of the consumers. CVP analysis provides valuable information, but it is only one of several elements that influence management’s decisions.

We can also use CVP analysis to determine the expected profit if fixed expenses, unit contribution margin, and expected sales volume are known. (LO 7-4) Predicting Profit Given Expected Volume In the coming year, Curl’s owner expects to sell 525 surfboards.

    For example, Curlexpects to sell 525 surfboards in the coming year. Variable costs are expected to increase, which would reduce the unit contribution margin to $190. Fixed costs are also expected to increase to $90,000. The expected profit can be determined by first determining the total contribution. This is the unit contribution times the number of units sold. By deducting the fixed costs, we can see that the expected profit would be $9,750.

If a company sells more than one product, the relative combination in which a company’s products are sold is referred to as the sales mix.

(LO 7-5) CVP Analysis with Multiple Products Curl provides us with the following: information: 7-* The unit selling price, variable cost, and contribution margin are known for each of the two products that Curl sells. Surf boards make up 62.5% of Curl’s total sales and the sailboards make up the other 37.5%.

This is the average of all products’ unit contribution margins, weighted by the relative sales proportion of each product. For Curl, surfboards have a unit contribution margin of $200, which is multiplied by the 62.5% sales proportion. The weighted contribution margin for the surfboards is $125. The same formula is used to calculate the weighted contribution margin for sailboards, which is $206.25. The total weighted average contribution margin for Curl’s products is $331.25.

For any cost-volume-profit analysis to be valid, the following important assumptions must be reasonably satisfied within the relevant range. 1. The behavior of total revenue is linear (straight-line). This implies that the price of the product or service will not change as sales volume varies within the relevant range. 2. The behavior of total expenses is linear (straight-line) over the relevant range. This implies the following more specific assumptions. a. Expenses can be categorized as fixed, variable, or semivariable. Total fixed expenses remain constant as activity changes, and the unit variable expense remains unchanged as activity varies. b. The efficiency and productivity of the production process and workers remain constant. 3. In multiproduct organizations, the sales mix remains constant

CVP Relationships and the Income Statement 7-* On a traditional income statement, cost of goods sold includes both variable and fixed manufacturing costs, as measured by the firm’s product-costing system. The gross margin is computed by subtracting cost of goods sold from sales. Selling and administrative expenses are then subtracted; each expense includes both variable and fixed costs. The traditional income statement does not disclose the breakdown of each expense into its variable and fixed components. (LO 7-7)

    7-* Many operating managersfind the traditional income-statement format difficult to use, because it does not separate variable and fixed expenses. Instead they prefer the contribution income statement. The contribution format highlights the distinction between variable and fixed expenses. On the contribution income statement, all variable expenses are subtracted from sales to obtain the contribution margin. All fixed costs are then subtracted from the contribution margin to obtain net income. Operating managers frequently prefer the contribution income statement, because its separation of fixed and variable expenses highlights cost-volume-profit relationships. It is readily apparent from the contribution-format statement how income will be affected when sales volume changes by a given percentage.

Explain the role of cost structure and operating leverage in CVP relationships.

    The cost structureof an organization is the relative proportion of its fixed and variable costs. Cost structures differ widely among industries and among firms within an industry. A company using a computer-integrated manufacturing system has a large investment in plant and equipment, which results in a cost structure dominated by fixed costs. In contrast, a home builder contractor’s cost structure has a much higher proportion of variable costs. The highly automated manufacturing firm is capital-intensive, whereas the home building contractor is labor-intensive. An organization’s cost structure has a significant effect on the sensitivity of its profit to changes in volume. The extent to which an organization uses fixed costs in its cost structure is called operating leverage. The operating leverage is greatest in firms with a large proportion of fixed costs, low proportion of variable costs, and the resulting high contribution margin ratio.

    The managerial accountantcan measure a firm’s operating leverage, at a particular sales volume, using the operating leverage factor. The formula is contribution margin divided by net income. At sales of 500 surfboards, Curl’s contribution margin is $100,000 and net income is $20,000; therefore, its operating leverage factor is 5.

If Curl increases its sales by 10%, what will be the percentage increase in net income? 7-* The operating leverage factor is a measure, at a particular level of sales, of the percentage impact on net income of a given percentage change in sales revenue. Multiplying the percentage change in sales revenue by the operating leverage factor yields the percentage change in net income. At Curl, Inc., a 10% increase in sales would be multiplied by the operating leverage of 5.

    Therefore, if Curlexperiences a 10% increase in sales, it can expect a 50% increase in net income.

On the other hand, a firm with high operating leverage has a relatively high break-even point. 7-* A firm’s cost structure plays an important role in determining its cost-volume-profit relationships. A company with proportionately high fixed cost has relatively high operating leverage. The result of high operating leverage is that the firm can generate a large percentage increase in net income from a relatively small percentage increase in sales revenue. On the other hand, a firm with high operating leverage has a relatively high break-even point. This entails some risk to the firm.

CVP Analysis, Activity-Based Costing, and Advanced Manufacturing Systems An activity-based costing system provides a much more complete picture of cost-volume-profit relationships and, thus, it provides better information to managers. 7-* Break-even point = Fixed costs Unit contribution margin Traditional cost-volume-profit analysis focuses on the number of units sold as the only cost and revenue driver. Sales revenue is assumed to be linear in units sold. Moreover, costs are categorized as fixed or variable, with respect to the number of units sold, within the relevant range. This approach is consistent with traditional product-costing systems, in which cost assignment is based on a single, volume- related cost driver. In CVP analysis, as in product costing, the traditional approach can be misleading or provide less than adequate information for various management purposes. An activity based costing system provides a much more complete picture of cost-volume-profit relationships and, thus, it provides better information to managers.

This is the fundamental distinction between a traditional CVP analysis and an activity-based costing CVP analysis. 7-* The point of this section is that activity-based costing provides a richer description of a company’s cost behavior. Just as ABC can improve an organization’s product-costing system, it also can facilitate a deeper understanding of cost behavior and CVP relationships.

To earn a particular after-tax net income, a greater before-tax income will be required. 7-* Target after-tax net income 1 - t = Before-tax net income The requirement that companies pay income taxes affects their cost-volume-profit relationships. To earn a particular after-tax net income, a greater before-tax income will be required. To determine what the before-tax net income is, the after-tax net income is divided by 1 minus the tax rate. The formulas presented in this chapter can now be used with the before-tax net income to provide for the effect of taxes.
